Answer:

The answer is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

For a poisson distribution, the variance is equal to the mean. Since the average number of defects per product is 2, it means that the mean per product is 2. Hence for 32 units it is 16 divided by 2 which is 16.

Also, since the square root of variance is equal standard deviation, the square root of 16 is 4.

Physics students drop a ball from the top of a 100 foot high building and model its height as a function time with the equation
pishuonlain [190]

When the ball hits the ground, the height is 0.

0 = 100 - 16t²

0 = (10 - 4t)(10 + 4t)

0 = 10 - 4t     or     0 = 10 + 4t

4t = 10          or       -4t = 10

 t = \frac{10}{4}             or          t = -\frac{10}{4}

Time cannot be negative (unless you have a time machine) so disregard  -\frac{10}{4}

Answer: t = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5 seconds

Using the work shown on the left, What is the cubed root of 4/ the square root of 2 in simplest radical form
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

⁶√2

Step-by-step explanation:

∛4 = (2^2)^1/3 = 2^2/3

So ∛4 / √2

= 2^2/3 / 2^1/2

= 2^1/6

= ⁶√2
